Colors of the earth.

Colors...

Prisms of light,

different through different eyes,

My favorite? Let me think...

 

Red

because of the passion that it represents.

The fierce and confident color of love.

Orange

because of its care-free radiance,

The ecstatic and tranquil color of the young.

Yellow

because of the glee that is the hue itself.

The bright and upbeat color of the sun.

Green

because of its natural shade worn by many.

The calm and noble color of Mother Nature.

Blue

Because of the bold truth it holds.

The powerful and graceful color of the sea.

Purple

because of the serenity that is within the shade of hope.

The strong and blissful color of the soul.

 

How about the colors in-between?

If the universe lacked one color,

the world would be dull.

Not one overrides the other,

the hues of God's heart are in balance.

So why must I choose?

For I love them all as one,

simply as the color of life.
